Alma MaterProudly waves old West High's emblem,Black and Orange fair.Floats triumphant in the breezes,No dishonor there.

Students days have fondest mem'ries;Comrades here we stand.As our troth to Alma MaterPledge we hand in hand.

From t hy halls , dea r Alma Mater,We at length must part,But thy mem'ry shall not perishProm one student's heart.

Far away on life's broad highway.All shall fortune try.Still our lo\mg hearts shall cherishThoughts of thee, West High.

Class PoemHere's to West High, proud and strong!

May it prosper as years go 'long!High in honor, proud in name,

May it always be the same!High standards may it always back.

Here's to West High, Orange and Black!

Dear West High, we will always know.That in whatever you try to do.

Or whatever happens, whatever comes,You'll always be straight and true!

Here's to the school we're leaving,That we love, honor and revere,

No matter where life leads us,We'll always hold it dear.

1 he friendships we've made within its walls.That West High Spirit, true and strong,

Deep m our hearts we'll ne'er forget.Nor our Alma Mater's song.

And the teachers who've helped andcounselled us.

Always kind, ever-ready and true,1 he lessons they've patiently taught us.

We'll remember our whole lives thru.

For four years now we've worked together,Hut it could not be always so,

1 hen here's to each and all of us,Where ever we may go.

With courage high, and eager hearts.For where'er our fortunes lie,

We'll always keep your memories dear,And love you. Dear old West High!

—I no Smith

/>TVHE First Stage—Freshmen, young but not guileless. When the membersA of this most renowned of classes first began making their daily journeys

toward Genesee Street people didn't take much notice of them but it wasn't longbefore they realized just what had come into their midst, a super-class destinedfor renown. Why, the games were dead without them and the shelf (freshmenwere allowed in assembly in those days) made so much noise that sometimeseven the seniors deigned a yell or two in its general direction. That was justpreparation.

We proceed to the Second Stage, advanced and promising. We braved aHallowe'en party where everybody stood on his dignity and the boys didn't dance,but stood around in corners trying to look bored. Nevertheless, it was a success,for two months afterwards the class celebrated with a sleighride and dance.Everybody seemed to have learned how to keep time to the music in the interveningtime so the affair came bravely to an end.

The Third Stage—Upper classmen and feeling pretty big; but didn't wehave a right? What a past! But, Oh! What a future!

That May we had a regular picnic at Corbett's Glen where everybody playedbaseball and generally returned to his youth. Mr. Ford roasted hot dogs and wekept him busy. In fact, they tasted so good we decided to let him try again. Sothe next October, we all walked up to Genesee Valley Park with our sausages andcharcoal. We arrived about three-thirty, but were all so hungry that whenanother part of the class arrived at five there was nothing in the shape of food tobe seen.

That same month we had another Hallowe'en party, better than the last.Harry Tompkins had a vaudeville performance staged in the assembly besides thedancing in the corridors. You know what a regular party is.—

Hurrah! The Last Stage. Seniors. Dignified? No. Happy? YesWe planned a sleighride; but the weather man made a mistake so we danced

in the gym, instead. There was another performance in the assembly tooEverything went all right while the performers were solemn; but then—theydrew the curtain.

Next, we did something for the school. On April 29th, the classes of Januaryand June, gave the junior Dance. Those who didn't come have been'told bythis time what they missed and the others don't have to be told. Green cherriesin the punch and Damon's Orchestra! Enough? We'll say so!


zzThe next month the two classes presented the play "Green Stockings" under

the direction of Miss Tnpp. To say that it was success is putting it altogethertoo nudly. It was the best in years and kept the audience laughing for twostraight hours.

The Senior Hallowe'en party was the best of the three, as it should have been.It was the last class party and everybody turned up ready to do something.

For the Senior play Mrs. Ellis picked out Desraeli, a very ambitious under-taking for high school pupils; but a play very well-known and interesting. It wasremarkably well portrayed and the elaborate, old-fashioned costumes furnished anunusual setting.

The Senior dance, like the Junior dance, speaks for itself. It was a Christmasparty with decorations to match.

I draw to a close. I could write on or about our exploits in baseball, track,soccer, basketball. The class was represented in all from its infancy; to saynothing of the Occident, whose editor is our President.

In all patriotic and money raising attemps besides the West High Day affairsthe class has been more than active. As I said before, this account grows lengthyand might continue ad infinitim if it weren't for the editor who allowed it so muchspace and no more. The history of the class in West High School ends, but anotheris just beginning. May it be as glorious and desirable as the one just completed.

PROPHECYA few years after I left college, by great luck, I had invented Pixley's hair

tonic, and have had great success with it ever since. Not long after it wasput on the market I found that I must have someone to advertise it for me, andamong my old school mates I discovered the very one, Bernice Dixon, who hadalways had lovely hair. She and I had been very successful and so I had decidedto take a rather extended vacation. First I visited New York City and in myexplorations discovered Guy Frisbie who owned a Sardine Factory and was promi-nent in society with his wife, formerly Katherine Menzie of High School Days.Together we attended a fine musical comedy which we found was called the"Terrible Twins." It had been written by Orville Locklin, and featured LouisWalz, as the leading man. When we looked over the program, to our surprisewe found Ethel Allen and Clara Thomas were "the twins," Ethel sang and Claradanced. As we read on we were more than astonished to find Fred Metzinger asmanager, Blair Garland as the celebrated dancer, Harry Tompkins costumedesigner, (of all things!) and all from West High Jan. '22 Class.

After the show was over we rushed behind the scenes and had a regularsurprise party, after which we decided to go all together to Greenwich Villagefor a mid-night supper. We called taxies and started. We had gone but ashort distance when the driver turned around, and if it wasn't Leo Kirstein,whom we immediately added to our party, then and there. On arriving he sug-gested we go to Alice Foster's studio which was always open. Wishing to seeAlice again, we hurried there and found Wallace Gifford and Helen Porchet there,both New-School poets. By this time we were quite excited after meeting somany school-mates and started recalling those of whom we knew. I heard thatKatherine Miller was teaching French back in West High School, Helen Smithwas an English teacher, Fredda Rosser was librarian, and that Dorothy Reed andDorothy Atkin were in the Gymnasium Department there. We heard that EdnaRumsev had a boarding school and that Lucretia Colby was the teacher of etiquette.Katherine told us that Helen Olander and Helen Wetzel were running a verysuccessful business school in Rochester; and you'll never guess-CelesteAndersen had been elected Mayor at the last Election! Alice said that ImaHixson had started a chain of candy stores somewhat like the Fanny Farmer ofour days and was doing fine. While we had been talking, Guy had been phoning,and in a few minutes in walked a whole crowd of people. In a minute we weremore excited than ever, for among them were some more of our High Schoolfriends whom Guy had routed out for our informal reunion. Eva Seism was thereand we found that she was a very successful interior decorator in fact, had plannedthe decorations for one of New York's largest theaters. She introduced IreneMuntz to us as the dressmaker in New York and Genevieve Stevens as her model.Then Gladys Palmer came up wearing one of Irene's creations and we were fairlystunned but we learned afterward that Gladys lead the style in New York and webXved it At the same time we heard that Helen Maxon lead the style in haidressing and well she might, we agreed. Clara Argento, who had become an


zzasked more questions and found that Mabel Russell was a school teacher andEvelyn Goheen the head of the Y. W. C. A. in Rochester, while Elizabeth Schultswas an English Professor at Vassar, and Caroline Ritter was in the 1932 Follies.

Suddenly I glanced at the clock and jumped for the door. I called goodbyeas I ran, for I had but a short time to catch my train. I had decided to visit at theranch owned by my old chums in W. H. S., Stuart Howk and Robert Fry, whohad both married girls of our class, Louisa Tyler and Mildred Rose respectively.I arrived at the station just as the caller was announcing the trains. I rushed upto him to ask which track my train was on, and as I did so, I recognized CliffordSmith. We had only time to speak a word when I had to hurry on. The trainwas nearly full when I got on, and out of breath I dropped into the first vacantseat without glancing at my neighbor. As the train started he tapped me on theshoulder and said, "Your name is Pixley, isn't it? Didn't you to to W. H.r" Iturned to the speaker and. recognized Howard Cook. We immediately startedto talk over school days and exchanged all the news we had. He said he was anadvertiser for a simplified-spelling book, which, by the way, had been written bytwo W. H. girls Dorothy Kinne and Ruth Stauffer. He had hardly stoppedspeaking when he nudged me excitely, and said, "Look who's coming down theaisle—of all things! I looked up and there I beheld Carl Huber strutting downthe aisle selling papers and magazines. We recognized each other, spoke a fewminutes together and then he went on, after we had bought some papers, magazinesand a book, which he dared me to buy without looking at. As I glanced over thesport notices in the paper my eye caught the name of Wesley Werth and I sawthat he was the sport editor. Just then another caught my eye. It was a noticeof the names of the Olympic team for that year. Among them I found WalterCherry, record swimmer; Dorothy Woernley, swimmer; and Williard dicker,and Jack Dimon, in track. We thought this was a fine showing for our class.The next page 1 happened to turn to, was "Advice to the Lovelorn" and if Ididn't find Edythe Yates' name as the editor. Now I was getting excited again,and when 1 picked up the magazine, I first looked to see what it was and who wasthe editor—and 1 was not disappointed! There was Mildred Nota's name as editorof the Ladies Home Journal. While 1 had been doing this Howard had picked upthe book and now he handed it to me saying, "Look at that carefully," I did,and if it wasn't "How to Look Thin," by Elizabeth Petty. These discoverieskept us busy for a while and before long our station was announced. Howardand I decided to go to a hotel together, and having called a taxi we rode off.At the hotel, as I paid the driver. I happened to glance at him, then I poked Howard,and we both pounced on—Clint Burhans! Then we had an all-around good talkfor a few minutes before he went. We stayed at the hotel for a short time andthen started out to a near by vaudeville house to spend the time till my train was due.On the way we were attracted by a crowd and pushed in to find out the trouble.It seems that a woman had been listening to a speaker and turning away hadnot noticed an approaching auto; and had been hurt. We saw a tall young ladybusily taking notes, and taking her for a reporter, as she turned out to be, weapproached her to find further details. As she turned we recognized ElizabethPercy. Of course she was willing to tell us the details, and, by chance, they wereextremely interesting. The traffic cop, Rudolph Napadono, had made a mis-take, and George Fordham, who was driving a collapsible Ford, which HenryMartin had sold him, had run into Ina Smith who had been listening to CarlDodge enlist recruits for the Bachelors' Club. Ina now, was doing researchwork for the famous archeologist, Carmen Sillato, and had lately become verynear-sighted. Probably that was one cause of the accident. Elizabeth also toldus that Bruce Winans, who was a lawyer and getting quite fat, had happened to beon the spot and would take care of the case which would probably come up inJudge Houghtahng's court soon. Ina had been cared for by a trained nurse in


zzthe crowd and she was no one else but Mabel Ross. We questioned, exclaimed,and talked some time, and asked her if she had any more news. She thought aminute and then told us that Greta Richardson and Editha McRae were on aconcert tour Greta at the piano and Editha singing. Marion White, we found,was the city s first lady undertaker and was doing a rushing business, owing tothe novelty, most likely. She added that Mary Shedd had had a disappointinglove affair a few years ago and since then had enthusiastically taken up prisonreform. We discussed them all, and promising to write, left her for the show.

We had hardly settled in our seats when an act entitled , "A Good Man isHard to Find," was announced, and we nearly fainted when the two actors turnedout to be Robert Loeb and Joseph Bentley. " How the mighty had fallen! Afterthe show we talked with them a minute, then I sent a telegram to "Stew," badeHoward good-bye and took my train. I rode quite a while when suddenly thetrain stopped, and all was confusion but soon the conductor came thru and ex-plained that a rail had been dislodged and would be fixed in an hour. As he nearedmy seat I glanced casually at him, but my next glance was not casual for there, inthe blue uniform of a conductor stood Henry Steincamp of my class. We hadtime to only speak and then he had to go. Then I decided to take a walk to theengine to see the trouble and as I neared it I heard a voice which I knew I hadheard before, swearing mightily, (and another voice expostulating and trying tocalm the other.) I hurried up and my suspicion was verified, for there stood WesleyPitt in the greasy over-all and jumper of an engineer swearing on, (and Bill Andersena minister—of all things—! trying to stop him.) I laughed aloud and they turnedand saw me. We had a mutual exclamation party which was soon interruptedby a mail clerk from the train who turned out to be Edmund Kane. With ex-changing news and so on, the time was soon up, the train started, and in a shorttime I got off at my stop.

In the station, a tanned young man met me and asked if I was going to "Hauck"Ranch. When I replied in the affirmative he asked me to come with him. Hedrove me to the ranch, and all the way I tried to remember where I had seen himbefore. As soon as I arrived I asked "Stew" and he called him in with two others.No wonder I had remembered his face, for it was Dwight Beckwith, grown huskyand big, and the two others were Elbert Carver and George Codd. We sat aroundthe fire then, and exchanged experiences. They told me that Caroline Brazielived in the next town with her husband who was a college professor there. Elberttold me that Mildred Kramer was a dentist in Rochester, and George volunteeredthe information that Mildred Clare was the millinery buyer at Sibley's in Ro-chester, too. They both seemed to know a great deal about those girls.

I stayed at the ranch for several weeks, and then left for farther West. InLos Angeles I ran across Dorothy Broderson, who told me she was in the Movies,and I later found out she had gained entrance by the great popularity given herbeautiful skin, on which she claimed she always used Irene White's face lotion.Those were surprises to me, and I told her the news of our old class of January '22that I had learned on my trip.

From Los Angeles I went to San Francisco to see a great tennis match betweenRalph Steele, Champion of California, and H. Trimby, Champion of the U. S.I had been looking forward to it for some time, and my expectations were justified,for it was great! Ralph won after a hard fight. After the games were over Iwent to see both the boys, and we gossiped like old maids for hours. '1 hey hadone very interesting piece of news for me—Nonie Wheeler had turned Bolsheviskand gone to Russia! Well I never would have believed it if they hadn't forcedme to! Ralph took me home with him and introduced me to his wife, who hadformerly been Alice Lee of West High School. I was delightfully surprised, and


in our conversation she told me that Kathryn Smith had married a Canadianfarmer and lived in Canada.

The next morning I took the train for home again. I had had a delightfulvacanon, an" S was wonderful to meet and hear of my school̂ r,ends as I hadIt brought back the days as I traveled back to P.xley s Hair Ionic, and 1 livedover my school days again at West High.

The memory of those days previous to 1922 when I traversed ^e "primrosepath" to dear old West High refreshed me as I returned home to continue the saleof Pixlev's Hair Tonic. Two bottles for the price of one. And now 1 say aurevoi? witr.the firm hope that I shall be privileged to meet again and againthe members of the class of January 1922.

THE BAND AND ORCHESTRA

A GREAT deal ofcred.tisduetoMr.Cluteforhis wonderful work with the membersA of the West High Band and the West High Orchestra, as well as to themembers themselves. We have all noticed their rapid progress and have greatlyenjoyed the selections given by them in the Assembly Hall. It is the plan of theband and orchestra to alternate in playing for the students at the regular assembly

SeSS1ItSis also to be remembered further that the band and orchestra will taketurns in playing for Americanization meetings throughout the winter, and last,but not least, the band will play to infuse us with even more spirit than we have,at the various games during the year.

WEST HIGH GLEE CLUBS

THE Boys' Glee Club is composed of twenty-five of the best singers in theschool. However, there are many more who are exluded because of the

exigencies of their schedules.The Girls' Glee Club consists of sixty members who are all fine singers and

who are doing splendid work. It is of interest to learn that the Girls' Glee Clubis preparing to present an operetta, entitled "Pipes of Pan" and composed by PaulBliss, which will probably be given in the Spring.

The combined Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs are known as the Junior FestivalChorus. These Glee Clubs have been doing excellent work and must be givendue credit.

BOYS' QUARTET

AS PECIAL Boys'Quartet has been chosen on merit. The members of this quartetare "Van" Stafford, Lowell McMillan, Louis Walz and Reginald Westbrook.

We have all heard how well they can sing, have enjoyed their singing immenselyand hope to hear from them more often. These boys are prepared to help out atclass parties, entertainments, etc., when needed.

A second quartet is in the making which will probably be composed of KennethLoysen, Bill Lutz, Walter Raymond and Edward Vragel. We shall hope to hearfrom them soon.

D:

"Spirit". At last they have found it. It is: June 2J.

January 1924^THERE is something about the class of January 1924, that seems to draw one1 into the whirl of gayeties and good times. Perhaps it is the wonderful spint

of friendship among us all. We are now almost upper classmen, and still thespirit prevails among us as warmly and earnestly as ever

In March we had our first big party with the boys' and girls' classes combined.Dancing and games were carried on in the corridors and an entertainment wasgiven in the assembly hall, in which the main feature was a play given by someof the members of the class. Will we ever forget the girl , Ralph Gray, as

"in'Tune3 just a few weeks before the closing of school, the whole class had asausage roast at South Park. A ball game held a large place in the amusements otthe afternoon. But oh, those eats!

On Friday night, October 28,1921 the class held a joint party—a masquerade.It was a great success, and everyone had a wonderful time.

The class officers are: Stanley Gaffield, President; Hamilton Nivers, Vice-President; Lynn Phelean, Secretary; Gerald Walker, Treasurer; William Bnston,Cheerleader. , , c ,

The council members are: Gilbert Hathaway, Elizabeth Helen and StanleyGaffield.

January 1925THE boys of the Class of January 192S held their organization meeting under

the direction of their class adviser, Mr. R. Sherman Stowell on the 7th ofMarch, 1921. The following officers were elected at that time: President, DavidRichardson, Vice-President, Joseph Tong Sing; Secretary, Chester McCormick;Treasurer, Lyle Garnish; Cheerleader, Howard Geil; Athletic Manager, LyleGarnish.

The following members of the class were appointed by the class adviser andserved on the general West High Day Committee: all of the above named officersand in addition thereto, Lucius Powell, James Connor, and Richard Hart.

At the opening of school this fall the withdrawal from school ot the secretary,Chester McCormick necessitated the election of a new secretary. Consequentlyat a special meeting called by the class adviser at which President Richardsonpresided and Clark Dole acted as secretary pro-tem. James Connor was electedsecretary for the remainder of the class year.

A Bubble

A bubble floated 'cross the lawnDipping gracefully in the breeze;Faltered as the sun shone thru',Then vanished in the trees.

But in the instant that it stayedThe rainbow shades were mirrored there;A shadow passed and left it grey,Then all again was fair.

I paused to wonder, could it meanThat life is as that fairy sphere;We live to dance, to weep, to sing,Then as the bubble, disappear?

BasketballWest High's Basketball Team started off its season with a sweep of glory,

defeating Canandaigua 33-8 on Thanksgiving evening.The Team shows fine passwork and quick play. With Adolph Martin as

Captain, and Fred Lawson as Manager, we look forward to a fighting, winningteam, which the school may be proud of.


ZZ

SoccerThe Soccer team, led by Captain Black, has finished the most successful

season ever played by any team wearing West High's colors. The men, playingconsistent football, did not suffer a single defeat during its entire schedule. Theonly thing we regret is that hard luck forced us to play two tie games with EastHigh. However, in spite of this West High certainly had a wonderful team. Allhail to Black's fighting warriors.

Senior Play " D T S R A K I , I "

JANUARY 13 & 14, 1922

All Star Cast, Directed by Mrs. Ellis

HEARD IN THE LUNCH ROOM"I ate some oxtail soup, and feel bully!""That's nothing, I ate some hash, and feel

like everything."

"Really, though, why does a girl alwaysclose her eyes when a fellow kisses her?"

"That's easy. She's just told him that hewas the first one, and she is ashamed to lookhim in the face."

CHEMISTRY EXPERIMENTDIRECTIONS: In a laboratory of boys,

add three pretty girls.OBSERVE: The boys all turn to rubber.

Lives of great men all remind us,As their pages o'er we turn,

That we're apt to leave behind usLetters that we ought to burn.

Little chickenOn the lea-

Honk! Honk!Fricassee!

FATHER: "Did you tell that young manthat I'm going to turn off the lights at teno'clock?"

CELESTE: "Yes, Dad."FATHER: Well?"CELESTE: "He is coming at ten after this."

1 EACHER: "Please explain the meaning ofEQUINOX."

MARY: "EQUOS means horse, and NOX,night. It means NIGHT-MARE."

"Poor Mrs. Jones! I hear she has completelylost her mind."

"Yes, she has been giving a piece of it toeverbody she has come in contact with forthe past five years."

The Freshman stood on the burning deck,But as far as I could learn,

He stood with perfect safety,For he was too green to burn.

Some Freshmen think they are so wise,But Seniors think them other-wise.

A teddy bear sat on the ice,As cold as cold can be;But soon he was up and walked away—"Thy tale is told," said he.

MR. STOWELL: "What does the reign ofKing Charles teach us?"

Co. Go.: "Not to lose our heads in momentsof excitement."

The boy who's late, resigns his fate;There is no need to worry.He'll meet his doom in 41,And the next time he will hurry.

CHAMBERMAID: "I found seventy-five centsin your bed this morning, sir.

PROFESSIONAL: "Ah, my sleeping quarters,no doubt."

In the lunch room they also serve who onlystand and wait.

"He is going to cook up some kind of storyby way of excuse."

" Then he's going to get himself into a stew."

The grave digger's love song: "I'll movethe earth for you." (With apologizes toChesterfield)

Those West High boys are mild, but theysatisfy.

"I sat in lone despondency,Upon the moonlit sand,And watched a gleaming arm of sea,Curve round a neck of land."

SHE: "Isn't it strange that a man's arm isequal to the circumference of a girl's waist?"

"Let's get a string and see."H E :

Ted Mooney (translating from Virgil)-"Aeneas insignis armis." Aeneas was re-nowned for his feat with arms.

A goat ate all our jokesAnd then began to run;

"Icannot stop," he softly said,"I am so full of fun."

As a Matter of Educationit should interest you to know that Rochester's largest retail store has astreet frontage of 599 feet, more than 14 acres of floor space, a Tea Roomwith seating capacity for 500 persons, and upwards of 2000 employees.

The size of the store in 1868—when the business was founded—was 25feet by 160 feet. Honest merchandise, honest methods and courteousservice have built it up to its present substantial size.

As it has served your parents in the past so it hopes to serve you now andin the years to come—always to your complete satisfaction. :: ::

Clean House With A HooverIt is necessary to use THE HOOVER in order to take all the din fromyour rugs in one easy, dustless operation. And the attachments areessential in order to capture the dust that floats in through the windows!What a contrast to the old cleaning method with its unattractive dust-cap; working clothes that make you ashamed to answer the doorbell;hot. perspiring effort; air tilled with unwholesome dust. .-. .•'

May we demonstrate the HOOVER to you—without obligation? Liberalterms should you care to purchase. .". • •

THE HOOFERIT BEATS AS IT SWEEPS AS IT CLEANS

And the Hoover beats, sweeps, erects nap, freshens colors and suctioncleans in one operation guaranteed to prolong the life of rugs.
